Luke Shaw said: "I am thrilled and excited to be joining Manchester United. I have been at Southampton since I was eight years old and I would like to thank them and the fans for everything they have done for me. I want to continue to progress my career and joining United is the ideal place for me to do that. I am looking forward to this new chapter in my life and also looking forward to learning from the world-class players and management at the club."

But you said you were a Chelsea fan! You were supposed to replace Cole!

But seeing that he cost you guys 30-34m, I'm over it.

i know

Had to do it:

Well, the back 4 is set. We have a defensive midfielder...all we need is someone who can dictate the play now...

27 Million Pounds is overdoing it...... he's hardly proven himself to be worth that much. But of course, he is young, and it may be worth it in the long-term. Let's see how this turns out.

It's good to see United up their ambitions back to the level where it should be again.

A great signing for someone so young and yet so immensely talented!!

damn! please dont let them have toni kroos as well

@iamRDM, I really doubt we'll go for Toni Kroos. Right now the priority is for a Vidic/Ferdinand replacement.

As long as we get Luis and Pogba and maybe even Varane/Mangala
